Terry Alan Lee was arrested in January 2007 due to our IF work in Portland, Maine. Lee was charged with solicitation of a child by computer and gross sexual assault, and though he considered taking it to trial, he eventually pled guilty. He was sentenced to five years in prison, with four years of that suspended if he doesn't break any additional laws, and the sentence is followed by an additional three years probation. He will remain on the sex offender registry for the rest of his life with the usual restrictions.
